Beautiful home but the filming was so close and tight I felt I could barely see the space. It was very atmospheric but I didn’t feel the architecture was as well captured as I would have hoped.
I think it might be because the house is quite small and intimate itself. Those wide focal lengths distort lines and make everything feel like a cheap rental property or crap TV show.
This was stunning, absolutly stunning. I would hate to live there and I would love to visit it. Such sophistication, such minimalisim, such beauty, this is nothing less than the manifestation of her mind... The house that glows at night... and also that voice!
Radekuroshi agreed! A house should fulfill the desires of its owner not to please outsiders, I especially like the fact that the house fits the owner’s characters and personality yet I would personally hate to live in there because it’s simply just not me and that’s ok.
Clean with even the hardest things appearing soft. I love her palette and attention to light. So many special personal touches. I don’t care for clutter but I’d build some kind of structure on top for my damn books.
The house is beautiful, but what I really wanted to say....@nowness with this videos you inspired me to change my life when I was in a really, really bad shape. It was bad. I realized that I was pushed my events, not by my own decisions. So...in September I start interior design course! yuppie! Thank u!
I would be so joyfull and exited to live in this house. Even the shadows, because of the architecture, are photogenic. Love Sophies justification for minimalism, I think the same way. Cheers ❤
Why she didn't have built-in closed storage made for her books and other such items is beyond me. She could also now purchase closed storage for some part of the house.
Не знаю, не знаю. У сильных, мощных дизайнеров настолько выхолощенные интерьеры создаются, настолько творческие, что уже просто невозможно жить. Произведения искусства. Настолько все идеально. Приходится, то сосновый брусок добавить, то добавить следы прошлых жизней. И заметьте, в комментариях обязательно присутствует: не хотел бы тут жить. Но в целом, очень круто.
I guess the thing I like about houses is the evidence of how people live in them. Without that, they are just structure, space, and light. This house seems like it's been reduced to an aesthetic object.
I'm always in a mess literally into my books. Frequently, I feel sorry for the donations that I've made a few years ago. Yep, Marie Kondo wouldn't approve it... But "people are strange"... Even very austere, this house seems very beautiful and sunny. Unfortunately, the film was so straight that we can't have the whole concept and views.
I want to believe that the house has that space quality that Sophie says, unfortunately Nick Ballon decided to film with those beautiful close shots that barely allow you to appreciate the spaces.
Only true-blue minimalists will understand her aesthetic approach. So stop complaining about her lacking for bookshelf space, she already had explained it. You do you.
Cold and devoid of all symbols of life, how appropriate for someone of this caliber.This box will make a nice funeral home someday. Just kidding, it would make a fabulous funeral home NOW.
This outwardly uglily-looking ,but highly learned lady loves and deeply understand the prettiness and health worth of the trees ,but she do not craft lovely outer shapes of houses,unlike the inner settings crafted by her ,which are indeed almost soul-soothing and bearable to behold.
I wish you understood. The value of minimalism put onto daily life is something society needs more of... Also, you don't need to answer but: Do you really look at houses and expect sex appeal? That's a weird thing to do, Gregory.
so a nouse should be male or female? a house is about space and light and not the clutter of useless things to distract from it ... yes, space pure beautiful space ... correct glorious light and space trying to find the essence of shelter in context to environment and function ....
Poser !!!!! “ Idon’t like decoration ...” she says, but there IS decoration in the house. “ my books are in a storage now...” that a the reason why you are such a freezer darling!. The girlfriend is wearing make up .... be careful honey because you may be confined into a storage !!!

Seconded

Because This video is Made for her And bout her, not about her created
The idea is not to see the space, but rather to feel it through sound and some visual.
.....of purpose?
I like the rawness of the place, the place is very texture centric and gives a feeling of calm and peacefulness
My all-time favorite architect, along with Kazuyo Sejima. Love this house
This was stunning, absolutly stunning. I would hate to live there and I would love to visit it. Such sophistication, such minimalisim, such beauty, this is nothing less than the manifestation of her mind... The house that glows at night... and also that voice!
get a life ..... next you will claim the "Emperiors" clothes are light weight and a perfect fit !

Gregory Lawler it’s shocking and difficult for you to understand, but not everyone has the same opinion.
Gregory Lawler actually they are
London U mean??

Here for that LIGHT PHILOSOPHY definitely gonna build a home that allows bright shafts firing the day and a soothingly glow at night

Having to leave your house to go get a book seems a bit outlandish imo.
How to makes one's "minimalist" life unnecessarily complicated! This could almost reach satirical proportions.
Agree.
along with bathrooms inside of houses I imagine the wrong place for them
@@marquamfurniture...Dolly Parton once told an audience, "Y'all would never believe how much money it takes to look this cheap!"
I live for these videos. Keep them coming
Me too
same
So simple yet so elegant
i am so in love with in residence films omg mind blowing
love the light, the space and the design!
I would be so joyfull and exited to live in this house. Even the shadows, because of the architecture, are photogenic.

NOWNESS HAS A BEST CINEMATOGRAPHY, I LOVE THE SCENE IN BEDROOM WHERE TIME LAPSE IS CREATED OF SUN RAYS.
Beautifully captured! Thumbs up to the team for this stunning representation!
If you watch again you will see some books and some decoration, even art work. Nice and simple!
I want to see so much more. This was quite stirring.
I am in awe.
wow I want to see more!!!! love it !!

what is a home without books
Empty
A home with no books
Absolute perfection. I would love to have a conversation with this woman.
Joseph Golas she would never speak to you .... unless you kill all your emotions
1:56 I love those switches and knobs.

Couldn’t actually see much of the interior (or exterior) of the house 🤷♀️
look closer
Very unique and interesting!
How many dead/dying birds do you pick up in front of those windows on a daily basis?
Thank you Sophie
This looks like a really neat home. But some wider shots would have been great for more context.
No books? That's a commitment to aesthetics.
Brutalism... love the concept.
Cold and impersonal the house really embodies London
Incredible house, amazing. I love it!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR SHARING . .. .. .. WHERE CAN YOU FIND THE LIGTH FIXTURES . . . .. ?? . . .. . THANK YOU .. .. . . GREETINGS FROM MEXICO . .. !
oh its so peaceful and simple,one thing though -cant imagine sleeping in a room without my books
minimalism is about simplicity without distraction - one book at a time - ugly things those books in numbers they belong in storage
A stunning house. I wonder if she is related to the late David Hicks? Their styles couldn't be more different.
Simply wow! Straight to my top 10 houses of all time
Saw this on Grand Designs. Loved it
que vida limitada a la perfeccion... deja ver profundas necesidades insatisfechas

Brilliant
When interior designers do architecture 😅
Wow, very nice.
This is the type of house I wanted to own as a student but as a parent, I could never.
Carolyn from Killing Eve
Omg TOTALLY LOL
no books = :(
I love her choice of words.
very detailed draw! not easy to plan and also need close collaboration with workers if they are not used to with that plan
ah the workers always forgotten under and not paid much of the time
what cam do you use ?
I LIKE THAT HOUSE
I love your house. ♥️👍
very cool.
I don’t like to wear makeup...I don’t like decorations...I do wear men clothes...it reflects the house and her style....

Does anybody know the name behind the painting at @2:34
look how she's typing, ... haha, the old school, like my doctor.
Here is the house in detail from ArchDaily.. www.archdaily.com/907624/1a-earls-court-square-sophie-hicks-architects
Anyone know what song was playing??
Tremendous
Whose director of this vid??? Genius!
See credits at 3:17
no room for a bookshelf but room for an elevator in a tiny house? You do the math.
ok - the books are in storage fine out of sight and distraction and there is no elevator to be and how is this a tiny house say 30sq. meters max
There are people who cannot walk... Even trough the staircase
surrounded by big buildings which are too close to all those excessive facade glass, closed into its own shell,... a prison.
the criticism is to a deviation of the cultural norms then - like a prison
Cool
Only true-blue minimalists will understand her aesthetic approach.
So stop complaining about her lacking for bookshelf space, she already had explained it. You do you.
A casa é maravilhosa, mas o pessoal parece meio deprimido kkk
need the sound
Thought it was Tilda Swinton at first
Dorothy Ortega tilda HAS god a heart and IS a real artist .... this one is a poser !!!
So hard to always clean those windows and glasses
surrounded by big buildings which are too close to all those excessive facade glass, closed into its own shell,... a prison.
but, no maintenance to painting
Constant glass cleaning
It's exactly shit like this that drive people away from architecture
the outside is weird (a garden wall???) but otherwise YES
Cold and devoid of all symbols of life, how appropriate for someone of this caliber.This box will make a nice funeral home someday. Just kidding, it would make a fabulous funeral home NOW.
No books....
Hello you x
fuckingawesome
拍得很棒 音樂也很舒服 很放鬆 很療癒
yes, we agree ! ;-)))))))))))
she's fucking cool.
Wat iset?
The real Maude Lebowski
How sad, a house without books is hardly a home. I hope that her family shares her values !
kindle has millions of books stores in a simple device - elsewhere with a poor judgment
Seriously awful from top to bottom, a house not a home!

The basic
a totally sexless house - which suits the owner ...... also the house not a particular style - rather it has little style ...... its a space.
totally agree. no warmth whatsoever. no homeliness. it's a sad house.
I wish you understood. The value of minimalism put onto daily life is something society needs more of...
Also, you don't need to answer but:
Do you really look at houses and expect sex appeal? That's a weird thing to do, Gregory.
it is an absolutely beautiful space.
so a nouse should be male or female? a house is about space and light and not the clutter of useless things to distract from it ... yes, space pure beautiful space ... correct glorious light and space trying to find the essence of shelter in context to environment and function ....
:(
Functional but no warmth or spontaneity.
Poser !!!!!
“ Idon’t like decoration ...” she says, but there IS decoration in the house.
“ my books are in a storage now...” that a the reason why you are such a freezer darling!.
The girlfriend is wearing make up .... be careful honey because you may be confined into a storage !!!
she who thinks she is he ?! looks a bit ... sick.
clothes are what are sick decoration - as the human body is sick
Very interesting house,,,
little comment though - damn she looks like a man...
Is that a man or a woman?
If you have to ask....then you know the answer.
Why does it matter?
Is that genuine curiosity or hateful stupidity?
maybe
